Lock The Door by Jane Holland is a great thriller which slowly builds up the tension as the pages are turned.Meghan,Jon and their son Harry seem the perfect family but when Harry goes missing from home while they are with friends in the garden their life is turned upside down.Secrets and lies come tumbling out and Meghan and Jon face a fight to save their marriage and find Harry at the same time.Even with neighbours Treve and Camilla and friends Simon and Emily offering help Meghan is close to a break down as the race to find Harry intensifies.This book had me gripped to the end and i never guessed the ending,a 5 star read from Jane Holland and i will look out for more from this author in this genre. |

received a Net galley ARC for an honest review. This was a very well done suspense novel. I was wrapped up in what happened to poor Baby Harry (who is not just missing, but has a serious medical condition) right from the start. And I really had no clue as to whodunit until it was revealed. The author did a great job of casting suspicion on everyone. I love a mystery that keeps me guessing until I am certain I have it figured out, only to show me I am only like 25% right. It all has to make sense to me in the end...and this delivered that for me. |
While they are having a meal with friends in their back garden to celebrate their wedding Anniversary Meghan and Jon's baby son Harry disappears from his cot.Meghan is absolutely certain that she locked the front door but she has been a bit mixed up and confused lately due to lack of sleep and the stress of taking care of a young baby. Who has taken baby Harry and why?,as the days pass and the police don't seem to have any idea who has taken her son Meghan struggles to hold herself together and with her doubts about the people around her.How can she trust others when she can't even trust herself. Over the first few chapters the reader finds out about Meghan`s daily routines and her struggles with being the mother of a young baby.Harry has a life threatening condition and has to have injections everyday so Meghan is very overprotective at times.Her life is not made any easier by the fact that her husband is a major jerk.Once baby Harry disappears you follow Meghan`s desperate search for her precious son,my daughter has a life threatening condition so I could fully understand and sympathise with Meghan`s fears and frustrations as the days passed and there was still no clues to Harry`s whereabouts. It's a fast paced,twisty,intreguing story that culminates with a breath taking final confrontation between Meghan and the psychopathic kidnappers.I would love to see a film version of this book and I look forward to reading more books by this author in the future. |
